I do not measure. If you look at the pictures I posted you can kind of see how much I put in. A pinch of this and that : )
Fill pot with water, boil on high about 15 minutes then turn to low for about an hour. Shut it off and let it stay in the pot a few hours.
Use a drainer and strainer when you put it in a pitcher. If I were you just start out with a few herbs and make a small batch then start experimenting.
Lemon balm, catnip, motherwort and chamomile are all calming.
Dandelion and burdock are good liver and kidneys detoxers, cleansers and toners.
White willow bark is a pain reliever like aspirin.
Hawthorne is good for your heart.
A child of God- beloved, holy, righteous, blameless, healed, forgiven, brand new, sheep, salt, light, a branch, temple of God, reconciled, a saint, God's workmanship, hidden with Christ in God, an expression of the life of Christ because He is my life, a partaker, a living stone- crucified with Christ, I no longer live but Christ lives IN ME!
